Post Leads To Avatar Change... A Bug!

It's probably nothing but you should know that the "post" button on top of your homepage is hyper-linked to https://brilliant.org/avatar/change/ [just hover your mouse over it to see]. If you click on that button, you see a drop-down menu for posting notes and problems. But when you right-click on that button and try to open it in a new tab, you are redirected to the avatar change page.

This isn't that important and people are unlikely to notice this if they don't have the habit of opening everything in a new tab [or hovering their mouse over everything]. However, it does look odd and I think you should fix this.

You probably wanted the profile pictures to be hyper-linked, didn't you? Because that would make sense.

Just another harmless bug I thought you should know about.

Edit: Now it's fixed.

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

It is fixed for me..Working fine. Only when I hover my mouse over the post button, It shows in the bottom ""avatar change"", but when clicked on, it pops up a menu showing problem posting and note posting. When clicked on any one, it goes to the right page.

That is what I said.

If you click on that button, you see a drop-down menu for posting notes and problems. But when you right-click on that button and try to open it in a new tab, you are redirected to the avatar change page.

You have to right click on the post button and open the link in a new tab to be redirected to the avatar change page.
